Love's Ballet

How does one describe true love But a feeling deep down in our soul Intangible, a mystery, a true enigma Just actors playing a role It's why this world keeps spinning round Billions and billions of times A truer truth has never been uttered The ultimate in feelings sublime Imagine us humans unable to love An armada of empty vessels Floating along on a nothingness sea Or riding life's precarious trestle My love and I are truly fortunate To have found this illusive dream An enigma that's puzzled this old world Since man happened upon the scene Trying to define the meaning of love Is like trying to describe the wind We feel the effects that both can have But the visual comes from within It's only a matter of perseverance Love eventually will come your way Take heart and show a little patience You'll soon be dancing love's ballet © Jack Ellison 2014

The only empty vessel here is Dragon's tummy. Can't seem to fill it up! Our Armada year around is the fun loving penguins always stirring things up! Oh! And you can describe the wind around here after Dragon eats loads of beans with barbecue sauce! Trust me the names he gets... ain't pretty! But then, neither is the wind which actually has a blue haze! LOL! And they already dance in a ballet they made up called Penguin Lake. But patience won't be needed as they have fans screaming at the gates.
